Actually, I started this post because I couldn't avoid Jude Law. It seems like he's on every channel and every magazine cover and no one can stop talking about how utterly drop-dead gorgeous he is, and I feel weird for saying, "But I don't even find him marginally attractive..."

I don't HATE anything here. They all seem to be very, very popular, and I'm not excited. Was hoping to start conversations with people where they could talk about what makes these things awesome, because I'm a curious cat like that. I don't think I'm cooler than anyone else for not liking Jude Law and Pixar. Trust me.

If I did actively hate any of those things, this post would've been longer. I'm verbose and complainy like that.

Well, hate, uninterested, whatever. In this context - "I'm better than you because you like something and I don't" - it's all the same.

Ah, I haven't run into stuff about him much because errr... I don't read magazines or watch much TV. ^_^; That does get irritating, though.

Ah. I'm slow on the uptake, I guess; I'd have expected "I don't get this, explain plz?" rather than "Everybody loves this except me, I'm different, ha-ha!"

I can understand how one might think that when reading the post, but it's definitely not what she was saying. Knowing her, she'd throw in a few "Hahaha neeners!" if she was. Casey darlin', you know I love you, but subtle you are not. ;)

Yeah, it didn't seem to make sense (even though I'm new 'round here, I can kinda tell that), which is why I got a mite pissy.

oh, that or I was breathing. Sometimes that's all it takes.
